CG and post for World Batoo League, from South Korean motion studio Imagebakery (via, one of my new favourite dailies: Sophistry)
Bent Image Labs‘ Ken Lidster recently directed this stop-motion spot for Dr. Pepper: I Exist … “Bent created duplicates of the set and triples of the nine-inch-high characters to streamline production. They then shot the stop-motion on high-res digital cameras. Certain shots, such as the soda pour, were done on one of the studio’s in-house Red cameras, using the Red Ultra Prime lenses.” View some behind-the-scenes photos.
Not new, but definitely worth checking out the ’08 reel of Turkish motion designer Ceyhun Kivrikoglu.
update: How did you shoot the slow motion, it looks great, did you use a Phantom? Onesize; “… shooting with a Phantom camera would not do the trick for us. We wanted to have more control over the slow motion in post production and still be be able to decide camera angles and motion. To do this we used the camera mapping technique in 3D. The production was made fairly simple compared to live-action shoots with high speed camera’s shooting on location. By using this technique, simply because we only needed still images, we wrapped the shoot in 3 hours. Our photographer, Jasper Faber did an outstanding job by using only 2 flash lights, a camera and a macbook.”
… A full feature with more insight coming soon.
Wow, this totally made my day; Revolver and Onesize collaborated in making this trailer for the Dutch Playground Festival … hosting a great line-up.
German Director, Designer and Animator Frank Sauer recently updated his portfolio with new work. Was especially impressed with his personal project Day at the Seaside, great editing and direction.
What a fantastic journey through imagery Bent takes us on with the creative direction of Nando Costa.
Some great new work from Cypheraudio (John Black) and the boys (Christopher Bahry, Alexandre Torres) from NAKD for the this Hershey’s spot.
Gorgeous cinematography, beautifully directed … “The latest from Biscuit Filmworks director Noam Murro is Emerald Cities (director’s cut) to promote Kaiser Permanente paperless medical records. Agency is Campbell-Ewald, Los Angeles and the spot features visual effect by Animal Logic.” (Thank you Shannon!)
“In the rubble of the recession and after being laid off from their jobs at a San Francisco based production company, two rambunctious youngsters, Tony Benna, and Adam Avilla, joined forces to try their might at becoming an artistic superpower…” THIS IS FOR REELS; check out their several month long stop motion project Yarn City.
Unbelievable illustration talent … Rafael Grampá spent four years as AD at LOBO and is now freelancing. His first solo graphic novel Mesmo Delivery launched at Comic Con last year … his next one, Furry Water is due out in 2010.
Nice experimental motion.
